| Gazi, Kadal Khan (14th century)
the commander-in-chief of Sultan fakhruddin
mubarak shah (1336-52). Kadal Khan accompanied Haji Khalil
and Badar Alam to chittagong,
where they preached the message of islam.
Kadal Khan's mazar
is located at Katalganj, in Chittagong. To the local people, he is known
as 'Katal' or 'Kattal Pir', the name perhaps deriving from the heavy casualties
he inflicted on his enemies in the battle against the maghs.
